[QUOTE="Mat, post: 3176370, member: 21445"]Not too long ago I acquired this little medieval coin from [USER=44316]@Valentinian[/USER] as Bertram for a reasonable price, but looking for more info about it, I found it was a much scarcer/rarer piece, Friedrich von Pluvoise also spelled Frédéric de Pluvoise. I couldn't find too many examples of this type, let alone hardly any info on the fellow himself. I was able to tell it was this person solely due to the curly hair, Bertram lacks it. So it turned out to be a happy mistake that worked in my favor. Post your coins that have been "Happy Mistakes"!
